feat(quota): add server‑side per‑client request quotas (requires auth) (#2096)

# What does this PR do?
feat(quota): add server‑side per‑client request quotas (requires auth)
    
Unrestricted usage can lead to runaway costs and fragmented client-side
    workarounds. This commit introduces a native quota mechanism to the
    server, giving operators a unified, centrally managed throttle for
    per-client requests—without needing extra proxies or custom client
logic. This helps contain cloud-compute expenses, enables fine-grained
usage control, and simplifies deployment and monitoring of Llama Stack
services. Quotas are fully opt-in and have no effect unless explicitly
    configured.
    
    Notice that Quotas are fully opt-in and require authentication to be
enabled. The 'sqlite' is the only supported quota `type` at this time,
any other `type` will be rejected. And the only supported `period` is
    'day'.
    
    Highlights:
    
    - Adds `QuotaMiddleware` to enforce per-client request quotas:
      - Uses `Authorization: Bearer <client_id>` (from
        AuthenticationMiddleware)
      - Tracks usage via a SQLite-based KV store
      - Returns 429 when the quota is exceeded
    
    - Extends `ServerConfig` with a `quota` section (type + config)
    
- Enforces strict coupling: quotas require authentication or the server
      will fail to start
    
    Behavior changes:
    - Quotas are disabled by default unless explicitly configured
    - SQLite defaults to `./quotas.db` if no DB path is set
    - The server requires authentication when quotas are enabled
    
    To enable per-client request quotas in `run.yaml`, add:
    ```
    server:
      port: 8321
      auth:
        provider_type: "custom"
        config:
          endpoint: "https://auth.example.com/validate"
      quota:
        type: sqlite
        config:
          db_path: ./quotas.db
          limit:
            max_requests: 1000
            period: day
